These Details Brought My Horror Character To Life

[@jh4490]

Some general suggestions: 1. Maybe you can add that "hole texture" to the back of their eyes, so it looks like an endless black pit 2. If you're going to add a ring to the grandma, maybe make it look like it's much to small for her, like her finger grew too quickly and now it's stuck on

[@spoookley]

“trashy, i don’t mean like she’s white trash, i mean… you know, the countryside kinda fashion.“ legit killed me as someone who lives in a rural-suburban area. you’re doing great lmao. definitely would make the red plastic disk on the shoes into giant sewn on buttons. it would definitely give it the look of an old shoe that she wore in her youth, probably from the diner she worked at and where she could’ve even met her husband

[@gimmelomp430]

Nice its like grany has come to life again

[@kristellu]

Just as I was thinking: “Damn I hope Boro uploads a new video” I get a notification. God might be real

[@BoroCG]

On other days I also upload on my gaming channel, but I don't think you meant that :D

[@sergentti]

@@BoroCG I forgot you started a gaming channel. Thank you for the reminder.

[@Estel_]

Amazing! The accessories definitely added an aspect that was missing in the design. The jewelry seems kind of "cheap" but also makes it feel like she's trying her best to look good despite living on a farm or in the woods. Perhaps she's trying to look good for her lady friends? Many senior ladies I've met LOVE to curl their hair too! So that's another hairstyle option~

[@robot7485]

I love the grandmas nails! She is a extra lady and she deserves to look nice with her lil necklace and nails

[@AlgumaCamila]

I was so expecting that necklace to be a rosary, given the old lady vibes. But very nice details, loving the work.

[@sckanersfofolle]

Somehow one day yt recommend your 3d modeling of some creepy old man, caught my interest and saw the drawing of the design then stayed hyped for this project of yours. Probably already said it but gonna say it again : I love your work 😘

[@kierentm3858]

Hey Boro, at 21:30 I believe what you are seeing is preserve stroke detail on the mesh reimport, that is why it projects the strokes you had from the skin onto the nails. at 23:17 I believe the reason it bakes the ao onto the front isn't because it is thin, I think its because the outside of the mesh is sharing the same uv space as the inside, which is copying all the shadows from the interior to the exterior. Educated guesses obviously but maybe that will help.

[@BoroCG]

Good idea about the UV being the cause of the broken AO! Though I get the same issue on fingernails, and those have full-surface UV. Shall investigate!

[@user-nh6pp8cq8u]

Hey! I came across your videos not too long ago. The way you think through your characters and details is really inspiring! Particularly pleased with the remark about wedding rings. :D I really like your videos and I enjoy watching them. Thanks for your content and good luck.

[@MIKKSDH]

Man, you're pumping these out, I love it!

[@TonChinKanKun]

You're spoiling us with all this content! I'm excited for every update on this game

[@frenchy6117]

Everytime i see your notifications i get so exited! Love watching these videos!

[@R0w4nH0pk1ns]

9:29 ish, look into mesh masks, I often make use of them in substance. It lets you have 1 material on 2 objects but you can use it to stop a layer from effecting whichever mesh. You can also use vertex colours when baking the ID map to separate things like this

[@miguli2011]

These Witness videos are so good

[@zanghproductions2559]

Also another helpful note for looking at the substance viewport. If you want to see how it'll look in Blender, you just gotta click the camera next to the menu where you pick 2d/3d, ortho/perspective, etc. But that regular camera on the right of that menu next to the film camera icon, that should turn the viewport to Iray render. It's similar to Cycles in that it's a raytracing render engine but a tad slower.

[@mrmensje1]

thank you so much for sharing your progress on this character, your videos are so fun and inspiring to watch :> its noticeable btw that you upload a lot more lately and we're loving it! Thank you so much again

[@brendarodrgs]

Keep the daily upload, pls!! 🫶

[@pułkownikkaczodziobyzpodlasia]

i keep spamming all my 3d modeller friends with your stuff. we all enjoy it greatly :3

[@BoroCG]

Oh cool, thanks!

[@algozord]

Oh my god this hype music surprised me completely ^^'

[@BoroCG]

It was a very intense process

[@maikeru01]

i think old ladies don't have nails like that, i could be wrong but i think they usually just keep them short when they get older, especially a sturdier lady like this, like someone who lived on a farm her whole life i image she's the type who is pretty good at opening pickle jars, you know? And what do you think about having just one shoe? If you saw an old lady walking around with just one shoe i think you would know immediately that she was crazy, or something was extremely wrong. Just ideas. You're doing great brother

[@Jekkel.]

You’re just awesome

[@jumbocube]

Awesome video Boro! I just hink the hair looks a little big goofy right now, doesn't have much character, just a thought!

[@KUBE.archvis]

You can add vertex groups on the solidify modifier so that the dress has it but the necklace doesn't.

[@SweetLitzLM]

What about making the finger nails broken, chipped and kinda dirty?

[@BoroCG]

I kinda made the edge tapered on some of them, but yeah I should do more of that. A missing one? D:

[@crisalidx5881]

@@BoroCG A missing one would be really cooool, also imagine If she was barefoot with long-ish creepy nails on her toes and dirty-muddy feet :o

[@SweetLitzLM]

@@BoroCG looking for references of chapped nail or farmer hands i think you'll find a lot of inspiration for how the nails could look like! It'll make a big difference on the finished model I think

[@Cake_soup]

For the third witness can you make a kid that looks normal but has eyes all over his back

[@CoreyJohnson193]

I would work on the silhouette; the old man has an awesome one, but the granny has nothing to make her stick out. She needs a shawl or something to break up her basic shape.

[@naumchomsky8840]

Clown on your shirt looks so much like the Hausu cat I was tripping the whole time.

[@Clases3d]

can you tell me how exactly you created the necklace? I always have problems when distribulng objects alog a curve

[@mrdeer111]

💙💙💙💙

[@andreadibari8523]

Only one thing you missing..."varicose veins" all over the body especially on the legs

[@tiagotiagot]

What if the necklace had a small chain in the middle hanging down into the hole, like it's a pendant with a cross, but the cross is missing?

[@teewurst]

will there be a new video on ai since its evolving so fast?

[@BoroCG]

Sure. Any specific tech in mind?

[@ThatPash]

SHAWL!!!

[@ThatPash]

tied at the back would look cool i think

[@AnaLeticia-n2t]

💯💯

[@johanavril1691]

there is a new hair system in blender it performs much better you should check it out

[@dasMoto]

Better being bold than haven't hair at all.

[@BornStellar-yp5st]

You can select polygons in Substance painter lol It's just one click of a button.

[@Mr.-M-Studio]

here's a couple of questions is the forest map in the game going to be the only map in the game or are there going to be other locations also are you going to add a third Witness sna furred enemy to the game just wondering ?

[@BoroCG]

There will be more locations with different witnesses, beyond the first demo level I'm working on right now. Each witness vessel is unique, somehow related to the location, and will have to be more and more insane as the story progresses

[@BoroCG]

Didn't get the part about "sna furred enemy"

[@Mr.-M-Studio]

@@BoroCG sorry about that what I meant to say was was there going to be more enemies that was all sorry for the confusion 😅

[@jaxtherippah970]

my only problem is i cant retopologise i watched so many videos, free and paid addons and i struggle like crazy, i wasted money on reto addons.

[@99brickstudios]

Oh shit FIRST

[@vaggsy]

She’s got the Marge Simpson outfit lol

[@namira160]

Maybe have a broken fingernail? or torn off... they look too manicured rn :0

[@recoverhealth2062]

Small stuff like laces or the necklace should be procedural textures and calling it a day. No one will look at those for more than a few seconds.

[@TheLucifer92]

I think you should remove the necklace, it really looks out of place and takes focus from the messed up chest area... And also I don't see pre possessed woman wearing that kind of a necklace.... Other than that, great job, been following this project from the start! Very inspiring! Keep it up!
